Amumu has a much lower diffuclty than Bard. That means Bard players don't need to be very careful when lining up Amumu allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.
Working alongside, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to support your allies. Together, these champs may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.
In contrast, by grouping Bard and Amumu together, you will not be granting your team enough sustained damage output. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that offsets this relative hole in this pairing's abilities.
Regardless of the ability of your Amumu teammate, you should focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
